An Intelligent Conversation (At Least in One Direction)
Jewel worked last night. She called me from there, she often does. Except this time I was asleep, it was about 11:30. I have absolutely zero recollection of the following alleged conversation.
Tom: Hello.
Jewel: Were you sleeping?
Tom: No, I was just about out though.
Jewel: Oh, I’m sorry, go back to sleep.
Tom: No, what did you want?
Jewel: Oh nothing in particular, I’ll talk to you later, sleep good.
Tom: That’s not possible.
Jewel: Why not?
Tom: Because I have to screw it down.
Jewel: What?
Tom: Because I have to screw it down.
Jewel: WHAT did you say !!!
Tom: Because I have to screw it down.
Jewel: What do you have to screw down?
Tom: The cup.
Jewel: You need to go back to sleep. Good night!!

As I was reading, the silly grin on my face spread wider and wider until I burst out laughing, right in the middle of the guys ER quartet practice!! That is very funny. I’ve had similar experiences with Paul. He is able to hold entire [semi-]intelligent conversations (with his eyes open!!) and still be asleep and not remember it the next day.
Thank you for that post. It gave me a good laugh at the end of my day!

What is with guys that refuse to acknowledge that they were sleeping? Last night my husband laid with Trenton and Cody in Cody’s bed, and after a long while both boys were finally quiet, and a long while after that (about 30 minutes), I went in and touched Kev, his head popped up and he said “Isn’t that something. There both sleeping and I’m awake.” Duh!

J! I can just imagine Kev doing that! Grin…….but I sure can’t answer your question. :)
